Abstract:
New additions to the benthic marine flora of the Northeastern on the coast of the Brazilian Northeast. This study reports the occurrence of two red algae, Polysiphonia decussata Hollenb. and Wrangelia penicillata (C.Agardh) C.Agardh, and a green alga, Derbesia tenuissima (Moris & De Not.) P.Crouan & H.Crouan for the northeastern coast of Brazil, the latter isolated from the cultivation in the laboratory. The materials were obtained from bimonthly collections in the intertidal zone of Bimbarras Island, Todos os Santos Bay, Bahia, between September 2008 and September 2012. Despite the records of these taxa for the Southeast and South of Brazil, they are rarely collected on the Brazilian coast. This study extends the northern limit of geographical distribution of these species on the coast of Brazil. Descriptions, illustrations, and comparisons to related taxa are presented.
